ZAXBY'S CHICKEN FINGERS DIPPING SAUCE

Zaxby's Chicken Fingers Dipping Sauce image

This sauce is really good with chicken and a great alternative to the traditional BBQ sauce. I like the full teaspoon of black pepper. This is also great on a chicken sandwich.

SAUCE ESSENTIALS: DIPPING SAUCES

Sauce Essentials: Dipping Sauces image

These five dipping sauces are on my rotation whenever I'm working with things like chicken. In truth, I use them with chicken, pork, and even fish. And how about using them with a nice plate of veggies... Rather than post five separate recipes (life's too short), I thought I would just include all of them in one. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.

Steps:

PREP/PREPARE
Chef's Note: In all cases, take the ingredients, and blend together, then refrigerate in a tightly sealed jar. They will last for 10 - 14 days.
Chef's Tip: I like to make my own mayonnaise for these dips. If you use homemade mayo, then the shelf life will only be about 5 - 7 days.
Chef's Tip: If you can store them in the fridge overnight before using, that will give the ingredients a chance to know one another, and they will taste even yummier the next day.
If you would like to make these dips more vegan then substitute the mayonnaise with Vegenaise. I use it all the time for my vegan clients.
Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
